Because they want you to know that they are truly worshiping God and not that native doctor that you think they are worshiping. |

cyrexx:still, what I hate is generalization, all atheist lives a better life? Chances are an atheist tends 2 commit suicide more than a religious person... At least dat 'mind game' help keep us in check. #peace |

rationalmind:alryt got ur point. Now why do you guys always find it difficult 2 let the religious pple be?, you don't believe in God... fyn, must you attack them esp. xtrianity? Must you always say something bad about their God just 2 arouse their anger? Does it make you feel good? You derive fun in it? Or is it just dat the frustration is still there hanging somewhere, looking for every opportunity 2 unleash it terror on the people of God?. |

Firstly, when you people start telling people how to live their lives, when you start saying abortion is wrong, homosexuality is wrong etc (and not just saying its wrong but trying to enforce such values on others) because it contradicts your religious view, we have to attack those religious views to enable you see things from a broader perspective. Secondly, take a look at the recently passed gay bill that stipulates a punishment of 14 years for any homosexual. This is a law that mainly stems from religious and cultural bias. How can we keep quiet when such injustice is being done to people because of what they consent to do in the private which concerns and affects no one? We need more religiously unbiased and freeminded people at the helm of affairs of this nation. It begins from somewhere. Nairaland and other online forums is a good place to start. 5 Likes |

rationalmind:enforced you say?, if 1/4 of these things are enforced you think you'll still be who you are now... Ofcourse there's freewill, reason why a xtrian won't force xtianity down ur throat(that is not thesame 4 a particular religion). @homosexuallity, even a sango worshipper will frown at that one. It has a lot 2 do wit morality than wit religion. Lemme ask you this question, can you hold down a human and slit his throat? |

Maybe you start by showing why homosexuality is morally wrong and how it affects you when two consenting adults choose to be homosexuals. As for your question. NO |

[quote author=aManFromMars] Why would you pity us? What exactly are we missing out on by not believing in God or a skydaddy? Is there some kind of slumber party for the believers that we aren't privileged to attend? and the intelligent design behind floods and earth quakes... and harsh weather.... including the ones that are poisonous to man... Maybe there was a God. Clearly he wasn't intelligent.
